I started my martial arts journey at a very young age in Judo where I competed in tournaments around the United States. This led to an interest in all disciplines. These include Muay Thai, Jiu Jitsu, Karate, Wrestling, and eventually Mixed Martial Arts.
I managed professional kickboxing athletes and mixed martial artists throughout the Nation. I realized I had a passion for assisting athletes’ growth personally and professionally.
My son began training Jiu Jitsu in January 2022 at the age of four. His competitiveness, eagerness, and love of the sport allowed me to assist as a coach in the gym which led to a competition team in September 2022. In 2023, I decided to plan my first Controlled Combat Jiu Jitsu event with many more to come in the various disciplines of combat sports.
